The two objects both have a charge of +1 C. Since both charges are positive, they will repel each other according to Coulomb's Law, which states that like charges repel and opposite charges attract.
Given that the charges are relatively large (+1 C each) and are only 10 mm apart (0.01 m), the force between them will be significant.
Therefore, the correct response is:
**repulsive, strong**
